I used to own one these puppies and, as I recall, I cut my own tapes loops using regular "dry" tapes. They seemed to work OK. I'd give it a try; tape is cheap. As Simon says, just splice it at an angle. Try a short loop first. >Note that the 1/4" (nearly) tape used for the 201 is the >lubricated type. Normal "dry" tape will not work.
